The Role of AI-Powered Security in Driving Business Growth: Insights from OpenText Cybersecurity
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into cybersecurity practices is revolutionizing the way organizations protect their sensitive data and assets. In a recent survey conducted by OpenText Cybersecurity, it was found that AI security expertise and comprehensive security services are driving growth in the Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) sector.
MSPs and MSSPs are increasingly focusing on integrating AI-powered tools, threat intelligence, and incident response services to combat the rising threats in the cybersecurity landscape. The survey revealed that a significant number of respondents are prepared to support their customers’ AI-related security needs, with many planning to offer AI services in the next 12 months.
AI is not only seen as a global challenge that MSPs and MSSPs are helping their customers solve, but also as their greatest business opportunity. Machine learning and AI-powered security tools are essential in helping cybersecurity teams stay ahead of attackers and protect their assets.
Microsoft® Copilot is poised to fuel channel growth, with a majority of MSPs and MSSPs recognizing the benefits of incorporating generative AI into their customers’ security programs. OpenText™, as a leading Microsoft Cloud Service Provider, is well-positioned to help customers leverage the momentum of Microsoft Copilot.
Despite the excitement surrounding AI in cybersecurity, comprehensive and on-demand security remain top priorities for enterprise and SMB customers. Gartner has identified composable security solutions as a top cybersecurity trend, highlighting the importance of security programs that can adapt to the evolving threat landscape.
OpenText offers a complete portfolio of comprehensive and composable security solutions, including endpoint protection, identity management, and threat intelligence, to help customers strengthen their cyber defenses and minimize risk.
